Camera Installation: Important! Mount the camera at a location that provides the best view of the area immediately behind the vehicle. Generally, mounting locations toward the top of the vehicle provide the best field of view. Lower mounting locations reduce the field of view and increase the likelihood of damage from road spray. 1. Find an appropriate location for installation. 2. Drill holes according to the size of U-bracket and fix the U-bracket. 3. Drill a 3/4 (19mm) hole next to U-bracket. 4. Install the camera on U-bracket. 5. Supply camera with 12-24V of constant power, ground camera. 6. Loosen the hex head screws and adjust the camera s position to get the best view angle in the monitor. Figure 1 Wiring: Important! Waterproof all connections whether inside or outside the vehicle by using sealant and wrapping with insulation tape. Wrap tape tightly, overlapping by one-half widths so there are no gaps.
